STRAFFORD — Hill Library Aide Larisa Molloy started Fall Story Hour on Aug. 28 with “Labor Day/Community Helpers” at 10:30 am. After reading, the craft crew made puppets of a variety of people working.

“I love story hour and crafts! There were three books, one about a police officer and a dog, one about a turtle and his neighborhood, and another about a girl and a firefighter. I loved it, it was cool, I'm going again!” says patron and child, Amelia Edmonds.

The library is now open for all patrons at 10 am to noon. In regards to the time change for story hour, Director Ken Berry and Trustees commented that they needed “to consider an earlier time for this as younger children generally use afternoons as nap time.”
